Wait, wait, wait. Now stop. Think about what you've been told. Now. Does it sound reasonable?

Netcetera condemn themselves as pathetic caitiffs

As a psychic, I can read your mind. You are asking "What in the name of The Holy Quackometer is a 'caitiff'?"

Well, if truth be told, I hadn't come across the word before either, but it means 'cowardly and despicable'. Lilly livered. Shit-yer-pants yellow belly. Still, everyday is a school day.

As blogged humbly on this site here and here, Netcetera who used to host the excellent Quackometer site have pulled the plug on their nethosting responsibilities due to WonderQuack Joseph Chikelue Obi's off-the-wall attempt to stop it from revealing some of the more 'interesting' sides of his 'enterprise'.

I have no doubt that The Quackometer will be back up and running in a few days, so no real drama to report, but Netcetera, to you I award Dr* T's first ever award for Spineless Caitiffery.

Keep Libel Laws out of Science

About Me

Who I am is largely irrelevant, and indeed so are most of my thoughts.
Nonetheless, it winds me up that I am supposed to swallow half-truths and untruths relating to scientific claims emanating directly from media sources and indirectly from people who haven't a clue what they're talking about.
Look, you've got me started.
